@MikeMcCusker15 great to see plans emerge for more active travel on the river irwell. When are you going to do something with the A580? Loads of space and potentially thousands of commuters who could change to cycling if there was a safe route into Manchester.
London has been transformed into an active travel capital. They've put cycle superhighways through Royal Parks. Meanwhile in GM @AndyBurnhamGM and @BeeNetwork won't put proper pedestrian crossings or bike lanes on the East Lancs A580. It's no surprise that people don't cycle!
@kennycliffe@gmptraffic I could evidence double digit offenders each commute I make. If I thought anything would happen I'd be tempted to make submissions
@WalkRideGM £2 bus or the nightmare of Regent Road, trying to find somewhere to park. Parking charges. Priority lanes for buses and bus gates. Why would anyone get in their car? If you have no choice through disability, the fewer non disabled the better your experience.
So I have been having a little look at the people who run some of the Welsh anti-20mph Facebook groups.
It seems that many of them a run by Tory politicians.... who live in England....and support 20mph where they live....
Let's go on a journey (at a very safe speed).
